Day 730:
Like I said yesterday, I dug as far as the shafts in this area went down and then started to mine… and then i hit a slab of valuable granite ore and started to follow it back up the shaft.
I know, I know, i have enough granite to destabilize the gravity of this planetesimal, much less the granite market, but at least now I know which boxes it’s in instead of having to dig for it.
Anyway, I’m now only two floors below my “house” but I’m digging up good stuff. So I’m thinking it’s a win even if it isn’t diamond.
Were the captain here, I’m sure there’d be some disagreement.
